If you look at the building from the Vltava River, you can easily recognize the Emmaus Monastery by its two sharp spiers that rise from its roof like wings. They immediately draw attention to their inconsistency with the Prague classics of the walls and foundation of the temple. Emmaus Monastery attracts not only with its extraordinary architecture, but also no less fascinating history. It was founded by Charles IV in 1347 and to the XXI century still excites our imagination. But where does such a strange name come from? On the day of his consecration, a chapter from the Bible was read, which tells of Jesus' meeting with his disciples on the road to Emmaus.→
